Show Summary

Premiered: Apr 01, 1998
Status: Ended

The Teletubbies started in the U.K. and proved to be a popular children's show. In April 1998, the U.S.A. picked up the Teletubbies on PBS, and proved to be popular with American children too.''''Teletubbies is a show about creatures known as Teletubbies (so called because they're tubby, and have TV screens in their stomachs). The Teletubbies live in Teletubbyland, and faraway place inhabited by only the Teletubbies, talking flowers, talking trumpets, a baby sun, the Noo-Noo, a bunch of rabbits, and the narrator. There house is known as "The Tubby-Tronic Superdome", and has everything they need, four beds, a tubby-toast maker, a tubby-custard makers, and a slide used as an alternate entrance. In the middle of their dome, they have a panel of switches and buttons and their tubby sponges which they use to bathe themselves. Each day, the Teletubbies discover new things together, watch videos on their tubby-screens, and have fun together. In Teletubbyland, there's a large windmill, and when it spins pink dust, it let's the teletubbies know that something magical is about to happen. The Teletubbies were developed in U.K. by Ragdoll and BBC.''''Characters''''Tinky-Winky The largest of the four teletubbies. He is purple, and has a triangle antenna (because of these features, critics assume he is gay, but rest assure, he isn't, he may be a tom-girl, but he's not gay.) His favorite thing is his hand-bag which he can amazingly fit large things in. His best friends are Dipsy and Po. He may be large, but he's quiet and gentle. His song is "Tinkle-Winkle, Tinky-Winky"''''Dipsy The second largest teletubby. He is green with a dipstick antenna. His favorite thing is his black and white tie-dye top hat. His best friends are Tinky-Winky and Laa-Laa. He's more of a loner teletubby, and doesn't like "cute" stuff. His song has a reggae beat.''''Laa-Laa The second smallest teletubby. She is yellow, with a spiral antenna. Her favorite thing his her giant orange ball that she seems to have no control of. Her best friends are all of the teletubbies. She has a free-spirit and can always find away to enjoy things, her favorite word is "nice." Her song is "La la la la la la la la."''''Po The smallest teletubby. She is red, with an "O" shaped antenna. Her favorite thing is her red and blue scooter which she can ride at an alarming speed. Her best friends are Tinky-Winky and Laa-Laa. She is very quiet and usually shy, but loves to go fast. Her song is "Fidy Fidy, Mar Mar Mar"''''Noo-Noo The Teletubbie's vacuum cleaner that can suck up anything in his path, even things twice his size. He lives inside the Tubby-tronic Superdome.''''Trumpets Trumpets that come out of the ground and sing songs or recite poems for the Teletubbies to enjoy.''''Baby Sun A sun with a baby's face in it.''''Narrator Basically tells the story, or what the Teletubbies "what to do".''''Show Secrets''''-The teletubbies in real-life are huge, the costumes can reach up to 10 feet!''-After ten minutes, the actors have to remove the Teletubby heads from their costumes due to carbon dioxide build up.''-Nikki Smedley landed the part of Laa-Laa when she was make-believing she was a table at the audition.''-The Noo-Noo is operated by a small man inside him.''''Alot of people have been saying that Teletubbies is teaching their kids to be gay. That is a lie. Teletubbies is a show for kids to have fun.''''Opening Sequence''(Sun rises)''Narrator: Over the hills and far away, Teletubbies come to play.''Narrator: 1!''Tinky-Winky: 1!''Narrator: 2!''Dipsy: 2!''Narrator: 3!''Laa-Laa: 3!''Narrator: 4!''Po: 4!''Narrator: Teletubbies!''Trumpet: Time for Teletubbies! x4''(Bouncy Music plays and everyone talks in a sing-song voice)''Narrator: Tinky-Winky''Tinky-Winky: Tinky-Winky!''Narrator: Dipsy''Dipsy: Dipsy!''Narrator: Laa-Laa''Laa-Laa: Laa-Laa!''Narrator: Po''Po: Po!''Narrator: Teletubbies ''Teletubbies: Teletubbies!''Narrator: Say Hello!''Teletubbies: Eh-oh!

"Abysmal"

By DexterNinja, Jan 18, 2012 Report Abuse

this show obiously has no plot, 4 monsters torment children for 30 minutes and oddly the children love it. they eat disgusting pudding and burnt "toast" that would posion humans in real life. and they have nothing to do but act ***ed, also, this show looks like several guys tooks hazardously large shots of marijuana, cocaine, and lsd. then decided to create a tv show to show kids what it's like on drugs. i would give this show a 0/10 (but i cant anymore).moreless

By Garfieldlover1, Nov 27, 2011 Report Abuse

Okay, I used to like this show when I was a baby...
But, not any more for sure! This is about stupid ailens who do stupid things and come on, seriously? A stupid baby sun?! WTF is a stupid baby sun?! That doesn't make any sense! And a god is not a baby sun! No! Thank god it ended though. But, I hate this show so much I wish TV.com made us still rate it down to 0! If it did, I would've rated it to a big fat 0 (especially fanboy and chum chum).
My rating: Big fat 1! >:(moreless

"Abysmal"

By That_TV_Dude, Oct 23, 2011 Report Abuse

Seriously, who came up with this idea in the first place. Teletubbies is about 4 aliens who act really stupid and do absolutely nothing in this show that helps or educates kids at all. All the aliens ever do is just wander around and ooh and awe over stuff like a flower or bee for 5 minutes straight. They also do speak complete gibberish that does not help the vocabulary of a child at all. Also what's with the sun being a baby's face? This show is pretty much telling kids that the sun is actually a baby. Where's the logic and sense in that? This show is not educational in the least bit. I'd rather watch Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go!, and Bob the Builder than this junk. I just want to know what the purpose of this show is. Somebody just drop by my profile, and send me a message telling me what the purpose of this show is and how its educational please. If you are a parent and your child is watching that horrible show right now, turn off the TV and have them go play outside or spend quality time with them.moreless

"Abysmal"

By Idle-Mack, Oct 17, 2011 Report Abuse

I was busy looking for a decent show to watch on TV. Then suddenly from out of the blues came out this omnipotently unintelligent, retarded, and totally morbid show.
I mean, there are other decent kid's shows like Sesame Street and Little Einsteins, but this one made me freak out 'coz this damned thing is so retarded, at the same time, horrifying to look at.

Omnipotently unintelligent.
WTF are they saying? I can only here sounds like laughter or something, baby talk, and some jargon things like 'Tinky-Winky do baba ehehe e... hehehehe.' All they do is roam around here and there doing nothing but stupid stuff like eating custard this and custard that, talking gibberish and worshipping their so-called 'god'.

Omnipotently retarded.
Whoever thought of this must be either of the following: retarded, drunken, sick, perverted, or maybe one of the members of the church of satanism. Ok, so they're creatures from outer space with weird antennae-like things on their heads. Here, IMO, is the characteristics of each four:
Tinky-Winky: the largest of the four. He's in a purple suit. He has the attitude of a f*g and he has a girl's purse.
Dipsy and Lala: Retarded girls in a green and yellow suit respectively that talks nothing but gibberish. Dipsy is stupider.
Po: Midget in a red suit that's just or more retarded than the other three.
Then they have TV screens in their bellies that at certain times shows some real images. What the heck is this?!!! They also have some sort of vacuum cleaner like thing that guards the spaceship and cleans up everything that can talk by making suction noises. Then they are kind of worshipping the so-called sun with baby characteristics who they think is their 'god' and they 'worship' them? The hell?!! This is a cult! Judging by their actions alone you can say that this show is f*****g retarded.

Omnipotently morbid.
Lastly, this show is just pure horror! Those four things look like satanistic and purely horrifying dolls! The scary faces, the empty black eyes... the TV in their stomach seems to act like a camera to take a peek into the human realm for the devil to analyze their potential weakness to prepare a massive attack, just like the one in South Park's Best Friend's Forever when the devil plans to attack heaven.

But what makes these creatures rather satanistic and very horrifying are its ears. They look like the devil's ears!
Looking into them is like looking at the devil's minions, as if they are tasked to turn human children into retards.
The pictures of them in this website even looks horrifying, and they seem to be DIRECTLY staring at you... like mindless zombies waiting to jump out of your computer screen and eat you alive! Holy s**t!

The only reason why I gave this show a 0.1 instead of a 0 or a negative googolplex raised to the power of infinty times x equals negative b plus or minus the squareroot of b square minus 4ac all over 2a about Teletubbies is how the hell did they lasted as long as 8 years+?!!!
I hope this show would be cancelled out and fast! Just looking at them gave me goosebumps!

Sorry for the long review.
